The perfect place to settle in and reconnect with family. The house is clean and comfortable with plenty of room. If you love a relaxed stroll to cafes, restaurants and beautiful tree lined residential streets, you’ll love this place. A short walk across the bridge and you’re on a gorgeous walkway along the river and a stones throw from downtown. Couldn’t ask for a better location.
